At the beer pub Fujisawa Beer Shokudo Beer Maison in Kugenuma-Ishigami, Fujisawa, Kanagawa, Repubrew's "Hearts UP! IPA" has been tapped (announced in a store post on March 22).

This time on tap is a collaboration beer celebrating PLAZA's 60th anniversary. In the post, its aroma and flavor are described as having not only a citrus character, but also a stone-fruit character reminiscent of peaches and mangoes. While it leans toward a bright, juicy profile, it is also said to be designed so you do not get tired of drinking it, making it an IPA you will want to take your time with from the very first glass.

The biggest visual point is its light pink color, derived from hibiscus. Combined with the hop-forward impression typical of an IPA and a sense of visual lightness, it is the kind of beer that lifts your mood the moment the glass arrives. Its appeal is that you can choose it when you want a different vibe from the usual golden IPA.

The serving specs are as follows.

- ABV: 6.0%
- US Pint (473 ml): 1,480 yen
- Small (296 ml): 980 yen
